Colladon and Sturm made some experimentsallowing for this change of capacity, and found that for a pressure equal tothat of the atmosphere, mercury experiences a compression of 0-000003 partof its original volume, water a compression of 0-00005, irid ether a compressionof 0-000133 part of its… … On Liquids. [97- compressibility is greater the higher the temperature ; thus that of ether at14° is one-fourth greater than its compressibihty at 0°. It appears from recent researches that the comi^ressibiHty of waterdiminishes with increase of temperature up to a certain hmit, beyond whichit…
